Search for the plant societies here; even someone in the orchid society might know someone who knows someone. There are plenty of hibiscus nurseries here, too, and Lyon Arboretum is an arm of the university that might have somebody who knows something. They have a web site.
Well, I know orchid sources, succulent sources, and I have a few 'nanner sources, now; but I don't have a clue about Hibiscus. (yeah, I know it is the state flower, but that's about all I know) I think the UofH may have sources, but the local nurseries would likely be better, or the sources the nurseries get their's from.
